Description

Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.

When a futuristic scientist is transported into the body of a young man in a fantasy world, his curiosity and desire for power push him to pursue magic. In a world without mercy, Leylin has no qualms about doing anything if it means benefits. He is cold, ruthless and calculating, never forming attachments that could impede his ultimate goal…

Honor? Who needs that… Hmmm… that guy seems too powerful for me to take on now… I better keep a low profile for now.

You want me to help you? What do I get out of it? Nothing? Bye.

Hmm… that guy looks like he might cause me problems in the future. Better kill him before he becomes a problem…

Nice story with an MC who isn't total nice guy for no reason, gets a harem for existing with endless plot armour or edgy OP kid kills for the sake of killing. Granted the AI chip is OP at times and helps significantly upgrade the main character. A far amount of luck is also present in the story but not to the point of "magical artifact capable of everything falls from the sky".

... more>>
Spoiler

1. The story mainly follows Leylin Farlier as he improves from lowly leech son of a noble to leader of a powerful Warlock clan to a rank 9 existence capable of scaring off the god of his world. Leylin is a much more cold and ruthless MC than others. He has no qualms about betrayal or allying with enemies as long as he obtains benefits. Unlike other MCs he doesn't do the typical bullsh*t saving everybody and crashing head first into matters that are beyond him. A main problem I have with the story is the lack of real friends he makes as he betrays, isn't very close or abandons most of them.

2. This novel is very distinctively divided into arcs where connections between them are sometimes rather loose (except for the power). Some arcs are a bit harder to follow and on my first read through I skipped many chapters even some entire arcs.

South Coast Arc:

I like to separate this arc into 4 parts even if they are nonetheless very intertwined:

Magical School Arc: This arc does much of the world building, power scaling, south coast and much more that will be prevalent in the rest of the arc. It mainly chronicles Leylin as he goes from the Chernobyl Islands to the South Coast and attempts to become more powerful and builds himself an image with benefits but without attracting too much attention. Despite the naming the school life isn't as significantly developed as I wished and is very soon replaced.

Escape to Extreme Night City: In this arc Leylin exiles to Extreme Night City for 3 years for a "mission" which is in fact a cover of an escape for the talented students from the academy which is preparing for a devastating war. On the way, he experiences the World of Magi outside the academy freely and obtains a number of resources and money. He accomplishes his mission with a number of casualties. While in Extreme Night City he has the freedom of experimenting as he pleases and brewing without fear of attracting attention and obtains many valuables and significantly improves his power. This arc is pretty mediocre in general. Not the most memorable.

Exile to the Light: Leylin is called back into the academy for a bloodbath. And eventually fights his way to some valuable items. He later hunts for a famous Magus' inheritance and kills his teammates for it. He then has to escape to the Light Magi side of the Continent through some dangerous areas. This arc does a lot of World Building on the south coast and serves as the introduction to the Warlocks and provides much of the power Leylin will use for the next three arcs. The Margaret Canyon is also very interesting.

More but too lazy to continue

A satisfying novel that feels really different from your usual Chinese novel. I'll list out the yays and nays of this novel

Yay:

  1. The setting/world. The universe is basically so expansive that it wouldn't come as a surprise if the author decided to write 2000+ chapters out of it.
  2. The power-up system and how it affects fights. The power-up system is interesting because there are multiple ways for a character to power up and reach the top. Also, rank-skipping fights rarely happen (and deemed nearly impossible) which makes the novel more 'realistic' as MC only has advantage over those of same rank.
  3. The MC. MC is anti-hero with questionable morals but that makes the entire thing interesting. MC is intelligent, rational and very cunning which makes his journey and fights really interesting.
  4. No repetitive subplot. You don't see MC undergoing smelting trials, young genius tourneys and sorts that you see in typical Chinese novels.
Nay:

  1. Rushed final arc and ending. The pacing seems to be nitro-boosted in the last 100 chapters and especially the ending. The ending was not bad but just super rushed.
  2. Not utilizing the expansive universe. Until the end of the novel, we basically know only about 20-30% of the places in the universe. Would have been great if we get to see more places

I can’t believe people are rating this based on how often sentences end with exclamation marks. Is that really supposed to be a valid complaint? “too many exclamation marks, 1/5, sh*t novel”

Everything with this novel is great, the Author obviously used his head and made serious effort to make these characters and how they act.

Yes, Leylin is a cold-hearted bastard, even I was surprised at times, but this is his personality, and the Author (so far, ch 101) hasn’t ever forced him to act out of character in the name... more>> of plot or story development.

So while Leylin is cold-hearted, this is obviously not something you should rate the novel on. Are you going to rate NTR & Yaoi novels negatively because you don’t like the tag? Then let’s say you don’t like Fantasy novels, are you also going to rate negatively because this Fantasy novel you’re reading does indeed have Fantasy elements?

That seems pretty s*upid to me, if you don’t like the tags, don’t read it. If you hate reincarnation novels, don’t read them. Why should this be any different, you don’t like cold-hearted Main Characters, THEN DON’T READ IT.

I don’t think to myself “now would be a good time for some fluffy and cute stuff” and then I watch Saw and complain about the gore...

Yes, there can be valid complaints about the novel, but most of the negative reviews are completely irrelevant.

And people complaining about the "chip" not being scientific, get real, do you seriously expect the Author to write paragraphs or entire pages of how it works? I don't see you complaining about CD and other xianxia novels chalking up "laws" to "Deep sh*t / profound mysterious crap.", which says nothing about it to the reader at all.

And even if the Author could, would you seriously want that in the novel? I thought most people read novels to get away from work and school, not to study science...

Are you also going to complain that you didn't learn about real world history from reading Lord of the Rings? <<less

Like many people said, the MC isn't scientist at all! All of his scientist part come from the ridiculous OP AI chip he has in his past life that somehow got transported alongside him! And he doesn't have the mindset of scientist! The analysis, research and deduction the scientist usually have is done by his s*upidly OP AI chip! And it was done in matter of second! The MC just take what the AI chip deduce as his own without slightest doubt! Very scientific of him! No effort at all!

He... more>> is just your normal xianxia protagonist with OP artifact! But the difference is he depends on his AI chip too much! Learning magic? Use AI chip. Researching something? Use AI chip. Don't know someone is friend or foe? Use AI chip. Getting out of dangerous situation? Use AI chip! All of his trouble is resolved by his AI chip! And he can't do anything without the help of his AI chip! There is other problem too! He is heartless, self-centered, not driven by emotions and very calculating! That's fine, I like smart MC. Sadly, his character preventing him to have a good companion or lover! The MC just doesn't care about them and even will abandon them if there is no benefit left! The lack of character building for those characters doesn't help them either!

And the story itself has many issues! The MC is someone who avoid trouble very much! The flag that will lead to good conflict is avoided by him! He is so low key and calculating thus he has few enemies! And unlike other story where troubles encounter the MC often, his AI chip make sure he encounters few troubles! Because of that he is unlike someone who is in the center of conflict, but more like bystander instead!

If you read this review and have headache because of the exclamation mark, get used to it! This story is full of exclamation mark and you will encounter it a lot in this story! <<less

Heartless MC that will do ANYTHING to further his power, this include using and then throwing away little girls, classmates and anyone that he befriends later on the novel. His moto is if he has nothing to gain from them he'll throw them away, that or use them as bait. His ability A.I chip makes no sense at all, nor does the author bother to explain the plot holes in this novel.

There is no romance, friendship or teammates in this novel, the MC is a psychopath and as the story progresses he becomes even worse, some of the things he does is so despicable that they pale in comparison to what the villains have done. It starts out normal, but trust me you'll want to throw up by the time you get to the later chapters.

This novel is just below CCM, the novel that I regret wasting my time to read.

A decent read about an A.I. Chip and it's meat bag that carries it along it's path of cultivation towards eternity. To be honest I enjoyed the read up until the last 50 - 100 chapters, they felt rushed like the guy was just trying to end the series.
Worth a read, but I'd quit at about chapter 1150 or so and just make up the rest in your head. Went from a decent read to a regret that I finished reading it.

A number of notable problems in the series as a whole, there is absolutely no character development for anyone other than the MC and ai chip. You'll read 50-100 chapters about him getting closer to some woman while doing other things, just to have them end up in his hands and that's probably the last time you'll ever hear of that woman for more than a single sentence.

One of the biggest problems would be his wives / lovers and the kids he's supposed to have had. The guy only named two of them and didn't even bother to name the rest, doesn't even mention them more than once or twice. He even forgot that he said the MC had impregnated several women and only remembered two of them, then added some new ones in later and didn't even bother to name the kids. If you want to read about an AI chip and it's adventure with a ruthless worthless MC, this series is probably for you.

I never left a comment before, however, after trying to find something good to read I stumbled upon some negative reviews, thus deciding to clear up the whole thing.

WMW is not a novel for kids. By that I mean there no princes on white horses, a whole bunch of lucky things and so on. It is well written with logical flow given to the plot. If you are looking for SMART MC, that is the thing you must read. He is not running wild and offends everyone he sees.

Many say... more>> this is not scientific and no experiments and so on. Well then I want to ask u, have u ever spoken to scientist in your life. I doubt it. Many experiments nowadays are performed in computer. I am currently writing a paper where all of tests are simulated virtually.

Many ranked low just because the MC is "evil" well I mean that is your taste. Why rank low? Are u ranking the MC or the writing. Why not just stating that it is not a novel for altruistic people.

Finally, I would like to recommend my list of novels to read. For those who find my comment reasonable and share my point of view. Otherwise, don't even bother to read further.

1) World of the magus world
2) World of cultivation (pretty slow start, but the MC is truly smart and continues to be one through the whole plot, the world is well made without major flaws) slow start u should endure at least 50 chapters before the action begins.
3) True Martina world and Martial world
Well written with a more as u say "good" character <<less

After reading around 60 chapters of this novel I can only say that this novel is majorly disappointing. The main character is claimed to be a scientist yet does not preform any action that a scientist would; rather, he simply orders his "deus ex A.I. Chip" to essentially act as google-sensei and tell him the solution to all of his problems. This is a major annoyance in the story as it is a get out of jail for free card that is used constantly. I don't believe there is a... more>> chapter where this thing isn't mentioned 20 billion times.

As for character progression? It doesn't exist. This story is meant to take place over several years but the main character acts as if he is the exact same regardless of how much time passes/is skipped in the story. His personality is one of a robot that has no emotions and thus is completely unrelatable. All other characters are given little to no background or screen time and are completely superficial.

Finally, the plot. It's pretty bad. It starts out with something that I can only describe as a grim Harry Potter type of story and then during the school arc it just gives up as if the author realized that the arc was incredibly boring and couldn't find a way to redeem it.

Overall I can't say I would recommend this novel to anyone. The characters are shallow, there is never any tense situations and the plot consists of A.I chip doing everything while the author scrambles to change the setting to something that isn't a complete bore. You're better off skipping it to read something else. <<less

I love this novel, 5/5. It has an interesting world, good pacing and a main character I really like. Yes, our main character is a homicidal, egotistical psychopath, but so is everybody else, so you might as well go with him. I think the thing I like the most about the novel is that though the MC might make choices you don´t like or agree with, they are still somewhat realistic and consistent with the established personality of the MC. Though he is “slightly” OP, he doesn´t suddenly challenge some... more>> huge clan and win through sheer power of plot armor. He is cunning and avoids taking the blame for killing heirs of powerful families, unlike a lot of other typical xianxia protagonists. Also when it comes to romance it´s not like he is thickheaded or a lecher, rather he takes the middle road by having s*x for pleasure and relieving stress, but not establishing any sort of emotional relationships whatsoever. While I feel kinda bad for Anna, I still think that his way of handling their relationship was the most appropriate considering his goals in life and personality. So summarized I really like the main character. <<less

1. "Deus ex AI Chip". That's what this story should have been named. First of all somebody please tell me how this guy is considered a "scientist" when the AI chip literally does ALL his thinking and analyzing for him. He doesn't have to move a single brain cell! Is that what counts as being smart where he's from? He is little more than a body for the AI chip to act through and literally CANNOT do anything by himself if the chip were to suddenly stop working because he... more>> relies on it completely.

2. I'm all for the MC that's efficient in everything he does and eliminates all threats to avoid s*upid conflicts, not drooling for and risking life and limb for every good looking b*tchy-as-hell female he comes across and chooses NOT to run d*ck first into danger for no reason. What I'm not for is an MC with a personality as interesting as sandpaper with a ridiculously OP AI chip to wipe his ass. He goes past anti-hero and straight into unlikable a**hole. Looking out for your own self interest is not a sin, but it is when this one personality trait wipes away your very humanity to the point where he's basically an AI himself. I suspect that it's just a lazy ass way to boycott character development. He avoids even the conflict that he could gain from. He's less like an MC and more of a bystander that you would never really care to know about. Average in every aptitude but (funnily enough) schemes like a scumbag on the low.

3. It's boring. The whole story is like an onion. Conflict is essential to a story so it doesn't help the plot none when the chip solves all of his for him. There's no tension. I'm now 99.999% sure that this is the authors fantasy more than an actual novel.

4. There is no need to end every sentence with an exclamation mark. Especially not with a plot and MC as dull as this one. Some may argue that this could be overlooked but that's a load of bullshit. Punctuation is important for setting the tone of a story, but It doesn't matter how tame what the speaker is saying is, it WILL end with an exclamation. You start reading a sentence believing that it's an action packed moment but then you're disappointed when you find out how boring the what they're doing actually is. Is it supposed to make up for the fact that there's no tension? It will give you a headache if you're actually used to good writing.

5. There's f*ck all character development so you you really can't give a flying frig about the survival of anyone in the story no matter how you try.

This story messed up my whole day. There just wasn't any coming back after this disappointment. If I could only give it a third of a star. <<less

The story was so s*upid, everything is done by A.I. Chip from his previous world, the MC doesn't appear as scientist at all, he just like ordinary person with help of OP artifact.

You have a problem with your body? Let the AI do it! You have a problem learning from something? Let the AI inject you the information! You are about to die because of negative effect? Let the AI dispel everything! You have a problem with your combat? Let the AI help you! The only thing that the MC... more>> didn't require AI is when he had sex, f*ck that plot!

Moreover, "MC is cold blooded" f*ck that cold blooded! He just basically uncaring person with unreasonable choice, he's from earth, he should've more "Humanity". He's unreasonably 'cold-blooded'.

Overall? Shitty and s*upid story, MC with worst characteristic, brainless, and absolutely flat character with OP A.I. Chip, plot-less story.

Yep, completely s*upid story in my opinion. Don't read it, don't waste your time! <<less

At first, I was very optimistic about this novel, seeing the reviews "calculating MC, cold and calm, can be heartless, logical, no knight in shining armor, etc".

Having read up to c83, the chapter which I could not go beyond, every one of this adjectives that describe the MC have are present in him. However, many of these are taken to an extreme such as being calculative and logical. MC always bases his actions on logic and benefits. If he sees that something doesn't benefit him, he doesn't do it, and... more>> even though this is considered a good characteristic, it is taken to such an extreme that many of his actions are predictable. He doesn't get into trouble unless he WANTS to. So every time some damsel in distress comes along with trouble and no benefit he'll look the other way. If that damsel seems like she wants to kill MC, MC kills her. If aiding someone in something allows him to get some material, he'll do it.

These are smart moves and should be enjoyable since I love smart MCs, but they are bland because MC is mechanical, he has NO emotions. From time to time, MC will lecherously look at a girl's body, but because he was some whoremonger, he will ONLY want the girl's body. No heart. This novel has no character development. It has lots of timeskips, but MC seems to only grow in doing more evil things like human experiments because this is how the author set the world up. Only by experimenting on people can a Magus grow. But, since this seems to be the only way the author allows Magus to grow stronger, MC seems like he will keep developing a cold heart that allows no one to get through to it.

Relationships in this novel are non-existent in regards to Love. Only physical relationships because MC does not develop feeling for people he spends years with. He has a maid who serves him for 3 years and he leaves after giving her remuneration.

This novel caters to bland power up adventures where he gathers herbs and material for research and potions. The decisions he makes also mostly derive from the deus ex machina chip that does all the work for him in every chapter. It's a handy device that lets anyone be calculative.
Albeit, I've only read to c83, the early stages of a novel can give a good idea of the story's potential and I'd say it was pretty bland. <<less

The MC isn’t a ruthless person, but he is so f*cking heartless. He doesn’t care at all about his friend. And I am not sure about the “scientific” part. He just got an A.I. Inside his soul that the same as typical xianxia where the MC got an amazing artifact. At the beginning I enjoyed it, but lately the story become nah.

Horrible execution, typical premise (with a few add-ons of its own).

LOL the MC is nothing like a scientist- a true scientist would try to delve into the depths of magic research while caring little about power. He's simply a pragmatist with more self-preservation instincts than most of the hot-blooded, rash protagonists of this genre. Another deduction: AI chip which somehow followed his soul after reincarnation into new life. No, just no. Someone who can't write well shouldn't mix 'science' with magic, that's just adding oil to the fire. All it... more>> does it show stats and give advice on choices he is making. Final point. MC just flat-out has zero personality. Sure, be cold-blooded and ruthless. But there's simply nothing that stands out about him. He might as well be 'Villager A+no qualms about killing+pragmatism'. <<less

Great premise, really bland execution.

I REALLY wanted to like this, because I love mages and magic schools, and the premise is great. But unfortunately, everything excluding the premise is sub-par. The characters are bland, Leylin is not only boring but also lacks the superior intelligence and reasoning you'd expect from someone who was (supposedly) a scientist in his past life.

... more>>
Spoiler

Just as an example -- from the very start of the story we see Leylin being moronic and walking around eating plants so the AI can figure out what they do. What? Is this what a scientist would do? What happens when you eat poison? I actually assumed that maybe the AI would be able to control his body and eject any poison if he were to consume it but this isn't the case. He was just being an idiot.

[collapse]

The AI is also extremely inconsistent. There is no rhyme or reason to how long it takes for it to figure things out... it's really just down to when the author wants Leylin to be able to do something. I don't understand why it takes the AI so long to accomplish certain tasks when you compare those tasks to similar ones.

It could be because I've just caught up to a few great xianxias but I find the world boring and unrealistic with the occasional hint of something cool, but there's just not enough of it to keep me invested.

I really wish this was a better story, but I've given up on hoping the story will evolve into a world rich with interesting magic and compelling characters, rather than a selfish douchebag who is wholly dependent on an inconsistent AI and has deceived himself into believing he knows anything about the scientific method.

If you want to see a real scientist in a magic school, you're better off reading Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality. <<less

Not a very good story. Lots of issues. Some of them may be due to translation issues, but more likely are caused by the author. As other reviewers have pointed out, the MC is not a “Scientist” No scientific method, no real experiments. Rather it’s a guy who got a magical artifact. The MC is simply a sociopath with no redeeming features or qualities. Apart from the occasional Skill Up, there is no character progression, nothing to make us invested in him, other then the fact that he is the... more>> MC. Additionally the world is so poorly constructed and thought out, and some events so poorly considered that immersion constantly breaks down as you scratch your head saying huh, what, why?!? Rather then delve and into greater detail I will simply say, there are way too many plotholes in the story. I read up to around chapter 100, and then couldn’t be bothered to read further. I simply can’t stand the MC, or this poorly written story any further. <<less

Ok look here people. Like most of the reviews here that gave this novel a 5/5 I indefinitely agree with their opinion on this novel. This novel is beyond amazing. If you like calculative MC’s and Fantasy novel that is well created and well thought out then this is for you. The story is has so far been interesting. The thing that has been pissing me off is that this site allows little B**** to write down s*upid reviews that is degrading this series. Like seriously you give this series... more>> a 4/5 or lower because that awesome MC who is a highly intelligent human being is cold hearted unlike what you imagine of fairy tale novels where the MC is usually a fighter of justice and peace. Bulls***. The MC isn’t even cold hearted. He has his own ethics. Just like in how the real world we don’t go out of our way to help every single person in the world acting like a knight in shining armor. He just does the same thing. His ethics are humanitarian to a certain extent. He punishes evil and helps those who has been of helped to him. He takes advantage of things and he has a brain that actually functions. Seriously this series should at least be top 10 in this site. Which is dominated by Chinese novels that are practically all the same thing with just a different name for the things they have. Yet I digress, I still enjoy them. But sometimes fresh and new novels like this are the ones that should be praised. <<less

This novel has a great cheat ability in the form of an 'A.I' chip which transmigrated along with the MC to the present from his previous life in which he was a 'scientist'.

The MC is just as described in the above description. The world is a medieval western setting. The fights are good and they are pretty thrilling.

The main problem with this novel is the MC, its just that he may be a MC but he's not a 'Hero', so basically I didn't find any good reason to root for... more>> his character.

The world in this novel is just as cold blooded as the MC if not more, so while I may pity some side characters but then again I didn't feel good about them.

The main problem with this novel for me is the MC. There is no justifiable motivation for the MC to seek power and rise to the top, only probable motivation is 'survival'. He does not care much about other characters, since he always keeps them at an arm's distance. So the stakes in this novel is pretty much low.

In a nutshell, in other novels if the villain kidnaps someone closer to the MC, then MC will risk his life to rescue that person but if it was this MC in same situation, then he will probably think what is the point of rescuing that person, and if he has any use to him, only then will he consider rescuing them otherwise..... he will simply discard that person.

I mean I can't speak for all, but for me the 'MC' in this novel is very cold and there is no real reason to root for him, so I'm not gonna read this.......... but it may not be the same for some of you......... so please give it a try and decide for yourselves. <<less

World building (initial 10+) chapters kinda dull but after passing that it is a breeze. Not your typical chinese novel: no harem, no s*upid or naive MC, no bloodthirsty MC either, no revenge focus, just a pure journey to the top

Start the novel interesting. But a bunch of clichés, endless cultivation, no significant or interesting characters, making the product or simply tasteless gray (in other words not a fish not meat). The hero is the villain? No he was just a realist, in the grim world in which he lives, it can still be called a good man. In general, the presence of the chip Prome hero is not what stands out, it can only be a little heartless than the average static protagonist. Hero of the scientist? No, just... more>> a ban*l alchemist with the ability to cheat (in other words, the usual magician). No significant enemies, interesting battles. Just everyday homebrew alchemist. By reading the 70 chapters of the mutants except for a handful, there are no enemies at all. The protagonist alternately growers of wealth and power, without great ego, enemies or interesting personality, does not stand out. No humor, one monotonous Middle Ages with a grim look. Reminds A Record of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality, only many times more boring, though there were hints of the existence of repressed feelings: feelings, aspirations. And the enemies were more interesting, and more intelligent. But as they say judge for yourself. <<less
